Hello 

I am not sure whether the following is really a nested table or just one
which contains split and merged cell. I generated it using table.el



+-----+-----+-----+

Are there any plans that org-table would support such a table 
org-table-create-with-table.el does not work on this example.

Hi Uwe,

You can edit such a table in Org-mode using C-c '

Ah thanks, however orgtbl-ctrl-c-ctrl-c will not work that is 
if I write a org-mode table 


| |new |
|old | more|

Than orgtbl-ctrl-c-ctrl-c will format the table nicely (table.el has no
such a feature). 


However if I edit the table I mentioned (the one generated by table.el)
with C-c ' and insert text I have to take care myself of the boundaries.

So the next question is could org-mode try to take care of the
boundaries of the table.el table?

Yes it has, it automatically formats as you type.

As I said, this just works for me.

I started fresh from zero, generated a new file and table and you are
right!  thanks
